Stefany Shaheen wins Democratic nomination for U.S. House in New Hampshire’s 1st Congressional District
Stefany Shaheen won with 37% of the vote as the crowded Democratic field turned bitter and donors tied to her mother boosted her campaign.
- On Tuesday, Stefany Shaheen won the New Hampshire Democratic 1st District primary, securing the party nomination in a close race called at around 12:30 a.m. with 87% of votes reporting.
- Although Shaheen led early, the race tightened as rival Maura Sullivan challenged her establishment ties, leading to an acrimonious final stretch marked by donation disputes and aggressive advertising.
- Shaheen secured 37% of the vote, narrowly defeating Sullivan's 35%, while Carleigh Beriont finished third with 22%. Nearly $740,000 of campaign funds originated from donors linked to her mother.
- Following her victory, Shaheen now faces Republican nominee Anthony DiLorenzo in the general election. She stated, "It's not enough to stop Trump's damage," calling for a more motivational platform.
- The contest underwent a rapid winnowing as candidate Christian Urrutia dropped out to endorse Shaheen; Sullivan continued thanking supporters Tuesday night, noting results might not be known until late.
